I'm curious, there seems to be an extra person in the group photo (and I think you can see her in the corner of the first table photo as well). Whodat? Whoever it is, I like her pendant :)

That appears to be Sarah Pappalardo, one of the co-founders of Reductress.

"My wife's a duck. I buried the lede. Those were her visiting relatives." I was on a hiking trail and had to step aside and let people pass me, I was laughing so hard!

 

Such a silly improv, one of the funnest ones ever. Loved Annie's Sandra the chicken lawyer. So much laughter in the room in this one, it makes me happy!

 

Congrats to Sarah Burns on her little one!

I think she was an ancestor of the genteel Southern hyperchicken lawyer from Futurama.

 

Great ep!

That New York City Law Class may have been my favorite flashback ever

I was thinking "That's why she crossed the road in N'awlins without looking!"

I am perplexed by the New Orleanian Paul mentioned who claimed that cross-walk timing was some sort of local vocation or point of pride or whatever. There's no shortage of other weird regional things to latch onto and NewOrleans-splain to visitors, like how people pronounce Calliope or the proper way to eat a shrimp or whatever.

 

Based on personal experience as a driver and pedestrian in the city, getting confused by street signs and street lights is very New Orleans.

 

As far as Zahn's character in Treme, he's based on a real guy apparently, and a friend of a friend reported that they really captured his character. Make of that what you will.
